Default OT: Flaming Toyota

Funny, our parting discussion at today's GTG was about magnesium cars burning out of control. Anyone besides Steve and me see the Toyota (I think) totally up in flames in the west bound 401 at around Carlingview? All lanes were closed.

Saw a Toyota truck completely involved in a fire outside Kamloops last month. Owner and a few bystanders all standing there filming it on their phones. It was impressive.

I thought it was a Nissan but hard to tell. Quite the fire.

The Car-BQ looked like a green Honda Civic based on the tail lights.
